What with the snow in Southern Maryland, I needed some rear facing work lights so I could see my back blade. Having not yet followed the lead of everyone else, I had to make do. Sooooo... It worked. Need to cable tie it together, as it fell off once, landed back of the seat. Worked ok. I could see what I was doing.

We got about 6" of snow. More than all of last year combined. Nice to finally get out and play and push some white stuff around.

You can see my garage construction project. 2 story, 30x40. Wood working shop and storage on the second Floor. Great project, sure seems to take longer to do anything than I originally anticipated. Keeps me off the streets.

Hey if it works, that all that is important!! I have even used a headlamp on my head, but the glare on the hood gets real old real quick.

Those projects always takes longer than you think, especially if you have to quit working on them and fix or work on something else. This seems to be my problem.

I bungee'd corded one of those rechargable 1,000,000 candle power flashlights to the ROPS for awhile last year for some rear light.

Worked great - gave off alot of light, but it would only last about 45 minutes.

Like someone said previously, whatever works, go for it!

That has to be the best quote of the year.
